carolina depends front last national north won
When North Carolina won the national championship last year, they had a lot of two-year players. You get them at the front end or back end. It just depends on how you want to look at it.
bags couple sand
We had a couple of sand bags in the dike, but it's just embarrassing. I don't know what else to say.
coaches fuel game kids needs team
This team desperately needs leadership. Coaches can fuel practice, but come game time, you've got to have kids that are more vocal, with more fire.
easily game good hit week win
This was really important. We could be 0-3, if Terrell doesn't hit that shot. But we could easily be 3-0, too. It was good to win this game and have a week off.

UNCP is a very special place to me, and I'm honored to be involved in a campaign that is as important to Pembroke's future as this is. Athletics is a huge part of the total college experience ... it plays a huge role in molding character and creating tradition.

You have to take what you're good at and work with it.
bounce opportunity points situations three unfamiliar
We're three points away from being 2-0 in the league. But we're 0-2. Unfamiliar territory, but I look at situations like this as an opportunity to bounce back and do something unique.
The defenses they play, they play very well.
game run
When the game got tight, out of every timeout we would run something for Michael.
attitude hard love missed weight workout
Every workout we've had D.J. has been there. He hasn't missed one thing. And he's been great. I love his attitude and his work ethic. He's working hard in the weight room, and he's working hard on the court.
dice roll
We just had to roll the dice and keep Terrell in there.
boards extra gave happen kicked
We just gave them too many extra possessions. They kicked out butts on the boards and that doesn't happen very often.
best game knew lost shooting
We lost a one-point game and a two-point game without our best shooter. I knew when we got him back we'd be a lot better shooting team.
